After seven years experience as a doctor working in hospitals in Australia, New Guinea, and England, I became convinced that human suffering and happiness are largely rooted in our behavior, especially in attitudes behind our behavior. Although I still have a long way to go on my own path, many have requested me to share with them what I have learned since then; hence this book.

“The essential of Nichiren’s teaching is Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō. That single phrase is complete in itself and all-encompassing. And yet the profundity of Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō is fathomless. The aim of this book is to make these writings of Nichiren Daishōnin and the essential of his teaching more accessible and understandable to worldwide readers of modern English.” Martin Bradley

Monkfish and DVD are friends. Well, sort of. Monkfish reckons he knows a thing or two, if only DVD would let him get a word in and stop being difficult. He wants to blend modern science with the essence of Buddhism. DVD just wants a quick reply. Can the two quarrel their way to dealing with the Big Questions of life, the universe and Buddhism? What is 'inner peace' anyway? And can you still party?

The purpose of this project is to encourage readers who seek individuation, and for those who are already familiar with the teachings of Nichiren to embrace the implication of opening up one’s inherent Buddha nature with our persons just as they are.
This is a serious examination of the Buddha enlightenment of Nichiren, who saw in the Dharma Flower Sutra the real meaning of the whole of life.

An absolutely stunning book. If I could give this 10 out of 5 I would. The book consists of a father giving advice to his son on the best ways to be a good person.The advice given is so practical and enlightening that it can be used by each and every one of us.
I found myself reading point after point to those around me with the result that each point was accepted with enthusiasm.
good for all age

Here is a book you will appreciate even if you have read many Buddhist books. This book expounds the Dharma in a very lucid way and illuminates the Heart Sutra from Buddhism's apex of psychology and philosophy. This book is a sharp weapon useful for cutting the root of ignorance.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama gives a commentary on Lamp of the Path, Atisha's revolutionary work and Lines of Experience, a short text written by the Tibetan scholar Lama Tsong Khapa. This book offers readers one of the clearest and most authoritative expositions of the Tibetan Buddhist path ever published, and it is recommended for those at the beginning of the path, the middle and the end.

Western notions of happiness tend to be selfish, contingent and shallow, and this book is about why I have rejected such notions as well as the commonly accepted strategies to achieve happiness. It's also a book about why I think following The Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path is much more likely to result in a deeper, meaningful and much more stable happiness.

In these talks, Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa Rinpoche explain the great benefits of practicing Dharma as an ordained person, how to keep the ordination pure, the purpose of the monastic community, how to live together as monks and nuns, and much more.
